About this map

The Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe railroad cuts a diagonal path across this Jefferson County landscape, serving as a primary corridor between the settlements of Hamshire and Winnie. In the early 1960s, the region's economy was clearly defined by extensive petroleum extraction, evidenced by the large Fannett Oil Field, Stowell Field, and the Big Hill Oil Field. These industrial zones are marked by a dense network of pumping stations and pipelines that traverse the coastal plains.
